The south of Patagonia is characterized by its semi-arid weather and numerous small, temporary and permanent shallow ponds. The aquatic crustaceans of these water bodies are characterized by their endemism and species richness. The present study was done in the surroundings of Punta Arenas (53 de...

The inland water bodies of northern Chilean Patagonia (38-41 S) have many lakes, wetlands and ponds with different littoral and zooplanktonic crustacean assemblages. This study presents field observations of species associations sampled from shallow wetlands located in the urban zones of Valdivia...

In Chile there is an increased use of fungicides, especially in the central and southern parts of the country. The aim of this study was to test the sensitivity of two common zooplankton species, Daphnia pulex Leydig, 1860 and Tumeodiaptomus diabolicus (Brehm, 1935) to the fungicide carbendazim. ...

Easy, economic, precise species authentication is currently necessary in many areas of research and diagnosis in molecular biology applied to conservation studies of endangered species. Here, we present a new method for the identification of three fox species of the Lycalopex genus in Chile. We d...

The crustacean zooplankton in Chilean coastal lagoons has been poorly studied, and the scarce studies available would indicate the presence of low numbers of species, variable according to the degree of oligotrophy. The aim of the present study was to give a first characterization of crustacean z...
The zooplankton assemblages in Chilean lakes are characterized by their markedly low species numbers and dominance of calanoid copepods. Nevertheless, the effects of zooplanktivorous fish predation on zooplankton size in these communities have not yet been studied in detail. The aim of the presen...

Sperm cryopreservation is an important tool for reproductive management; however, it has not been possible to perform this procedure for coho salmon. This study was designed to assess the effect of cryopreservation on sperm functional parameters, oxidative stress markers and fertilizing capacity ...
The objective of this study was to determine the effect of freezing on the function in Atlantic salmon Salmo salar spermatozoa. The semen was frozen in Cortland's medium+1.3M dimethyl sulphoxide+0.3M glucose+2% bovine serum albumin (final concentration) in a ratio of 1:3 (semen:cryoprotectant) as...

Two trials were established to evaluate the in vitro and ex vitro rooting of selected microshoots of two selected clones of Ugni molinae. In the in vitro experiment, nine treatments were compared, combination of three concentrations of Murashige and Skoog medium (MS) (1, 1/2 and 1/4 strength macr...
